A smaller but still important tendency within the Settlement Movement has been the cultural-preservationist current, which supports transplanting members of small ethnic, linguistic, and other cultural groups (usually but not always Coscivian) from Great Kirav to the Punth frontier, where they hope to preserve their culture by maintaining economic self-sufficiency and distancing themselves from larger neighbouring ethnic groups and more mainstream Kiravian culture. There is significant overlap between the cultural-preservationist and Coscivian-civilisational wings of the movement, as many preservationist settlements are sponsored by the larger civilisationist-minded organisations, and Coscivianists generally view the internal diversity of Coscivian civilisation as one of its strengths. | A smaller but still important tendency within the Settlement Movement has been the cultural-preservationist current, which supports transplanting members of small ethnic, linguistic, and other cultural groups (usually but not always Coscivian) from Great Kirav to the Punth frontier, where they hope to preserve their culture by maintaining economic self-sufficiency and distancing themselves from larger neighbouring ethnic groups and more mainstream Kiravian culture.

Some non-Coscivian minority groups in Kiravia have formed movement settlements, including the Rhūniks (who have settled in Thýstara), the Sinyolans of Æonara (who have formed a Mormon settlement in the Northeast Territory) | Some non-Coscivian minority groups in Kiravia have formed movement settlements, including the Rhūniks (who have settled in Thýstara), Skithanawites, | ||
and the Sinyolans of Æonara (who have formed a Mormon settlement in the Northeast Territory). There was a notable attempt in 21204 by members of the Makaveli tribe, a [[Aboriginal Kiravites|Kiravite Aboriginal]] people, to form a strictly traditionalist village near the northern frontier of Porfíria that would preserve their pre-Coscivian way of life. The Makaveli initiative secured the support of [organisation] and obtained a land grant, but was denounced by the tribe's leadership as hypocritical and later abandoned due to a lack of financing and difficulties in recruiting settlers. | |||
